Chen Cong and Cen Geng shared their analysis on the Internet.

In the third year of Jiayou in the Northern Song Dynasty, the plague in Kaifeng was prevalent, and the people were living in poverty. Emperor Renzong specially sent him. The Grand Marshal Hong Xin in front of the palace went to Longhu Mountain, Xinzhou, Jiangxi, and invited the Heavenly Master Zhang Zhenren to come to the court to pray for the plague.

Taiwei Hong went to Guixi County, Xinzhou and visited the Demon Fu Temple in Shangqing Palace. He did not listen to the dissuasion and opened the door of the Demon Fu Temple, lifted the large stone tablet of the Demon Fu Temple, and then dug out a bluestone slab pressed by the big stone turtle. Under the slab was a cave with a shallow depth. A black air rushed out of the cave and rushed straight into the sky, scattering into hundreds of golden lights, heading in all directions.

It is said that this is the origin of "thirty-six Tiangang stars, seventy-two Earthly Demon stars, a total of one hundred and eight demon kings".

After reading "Water Margin", we can now know that these 108 demon kings are the 108 heroes of Liangshan.

After knowing this, why did Mr. Li Fan write like this? It is easier to understand.

Why did Emperor Renzong of Song send Hong Xin to the Demon-Suppressing Palace?

Because of a natural disaster.

After Hong Xin arrived at the Demon-Subduing Palace, he released 108 Demon Lords without hesitation, which is a man-made disaster.

When the two are linked, natural disasters cause man-made disasters.

Therefore, it can be said that the origin of the story of the Liangshan Uprising is destined by God on the one hand, and on the other hand, it is very important and artificial.

Just imagine, if Song Renzong didn’t send Hong Xin to the Demon-Suppressing Palace, could he lift the bluestone slab? Without lifting the bluestone slab, wouldn’t there be any story about the heroes of Liangshan?

Therefore, the beginning of this article is to explain why Liangshan had an uprising. The Liangshan Uprising was not only caused by heaven's will, but was actually operated by people. This person was precisely Hong Xin, sent by Emperor Renzong.

And we all know that the period of Renzong was the prosperous period of the Northern Song Dynasty. So, "Water Margin" obviously implies a very deep meaning, which is to seek the roots of the troubled times from the prosperous times.

However, what is the root of the troubled times hidden in this prosperous era?

Mr. Li Fan did not make any clear statement or make a very accurate statement.

Or maybe Mr. Li Fan has already explained the reason in a vague way, but we have not discovered it yet.

But no matter what, this is a question worth pondering.

Especially for historical researchers, it is worth pondering.

As for another question, why is the first character in the beginning Gao Qiu? He also used a lot of writing about Gao Qiu's history of success.

This question is not difficult to understand now.

The purpose was to lay the tone of the work "Water Margin". During the Huizong period, the world in the Song Dynasty was in chaos from the top.

If we don’t write about Gao Qiu first, but write about the heroes of Liangshan we are familiar with, it will become a chaos in the world, and it will be a chaos from the bottom. No wonder the emperor and the court of the Song Dynasty.

In this way, the uprising of the heroes of Liangshan had a different meaning.

Therefore, Mr. Li Fan first wrote about Gao Qiu to show that only when there were treacherous ministers and traitors in the court of the Song Dynasty would cause trouble.

In addition, there is another more important point, which is one of the most wonderful things about Mr. Li Fan conceiving the entire work.

Mr. Li Fan first wrote Gao Qiu's history of his success, which actually implied that the Liangshan Uprising led by Song Jiang would fail, and also revealed the reasons for the failure.

Because they were not resisting the rulers, but just trying to get rid of treacherous ministers such as Gao Qiu, and they were still loyal to the emperor.

At the same time, it also implies that the leaders of Liangshan, led by Song Jiang, will definitely accept the court's revenge.

And this is also the reason why they will accept the court's envoy.

...

The above is the analysis and answers of Chen Cong and Cen Geng.

After reading it, countless book fans all felt a sudden realization.

I see!

It turns out that Li Fan had such a deep intention to start the article like this.

Now after reading the analysis of two famous experts, they can understand it very easily and not complicated.

But if the two famous writers had no analysis and asked them to think about it themselves, they would probably never be able to figure out the reason.

It seems that if they want to truly understand "Water Margin", they are completely inseparable from the interpretations of famous artists.

After knowing the intention and hint of writing Gao Qiu's history of success at the beginning, a group of book fans sighed again.

It turns out that the ending of "Water Margin" is not a good one, and it was already hinted at the beginning.

Book fans on the Internet are very moved by this.

"Oh! It turns out that Mr. Li Fan hinted from the beginning that the ending of "Water Margin" was not beautiful, but unfortunately no one could understand it at that time."

"I really don't like Song Jiang very much. If it weren't for him, the ending of the heroes of Liangshan would definitely not be so miserable."

"Song Jiang should actually be the most successful character in the entire work, but he is really not very likable."

"I absolutely agree with Mr. Chen Cong's previous analysis that Chao Gai was killed by Song Jiang, and Song Jiang is too utilitarian."

"Forget it, let's discuss the ending less. Let's talk about the previous story. It's so exciting that it's so dazzling."

"Yes, I won't talk about the ending. We say that there are too many places ahead, which are worth discussing and discussing."

“…”

...

The ending of "Water Margin" is a big deal for the outside world.

In addition to the various analyses and interpretations of celebrities and various discussions by book fans, many media have also reported it.

"Complete! Mr. Li Fan's long work "Water Margin" with the theme of "Uployal" was officially completed today."

"Did you really understand "Water Margin"? A brief discussion of some hidden secrets in "Water Margin"."

"'If you don't read "Water Margin", you won't know the wonders of the world." Mr. Cen Geng commented on "Water Margin" in this way."

"The People's Political Consultative Conference on Water Margin"! Mr. Li Fan's "Water Margin" was completed today, which aroused heated discussions among the people!"

“…”

...

The outside world is hotly discussing "Water Margin", which makes Wang Jin, director of CCTV TV Series Channel, feel a lot of pressure.

"Water Margin" is so popular that if the TV series they filmed cannot satisfy the audience, the problem will be big.

CCTV can't afford to lose this person.

Therefore, Wang Jin absolutely does not allow it, and the TV series he filmed is not ideal.

Therefore, he brought the TV series crew of "Water Margin" that had been formed and rushed to Sansheng Village again, asking Li Fan to close the crew's preparations, and then give the crew some opinions and suggestions.

Li Fan is naturally happy with this, and he also hopes that the TV series "Water Margin" filmed by CCTV this time can produce ideal results.

Therefore, Li Fan was very welcome to the arrival of the crew, and also gave his own opinions and revision suggestions for the crew's preparations.

Wang Jin and the entire crew were overjoyed, and they felt like they were very happy about Li Fan's opinions and revision suggestions.

After giving his own opinions and revision suggestions, Li Fan no longer paid attention to the crew.

He believed that with his own opinions and revision suggestions, CCTV will be able to shoot a very satisfactory TV series "Water Margin".

He no longer needs to worry about it.

With this time of worrying, he might as well go out and walk around and come freely.
